A Human Sacrifice.

IHdluh .ulTrU. |.lNf.|. .Es4 - HfHf1N5
A strange story Of human sacrifice comes
from the Madras Presidency. A woman
was supposed to be possessed with devil
and In consequence to have remained bar
rem. Her father consulted an exorcisls
who said that a human sacrifice was neces.
sary. Accordingly ono night her father,
the exorcist and five or six others met,
and after come religious ceremonies sent
for the selected victim. lie came without
suspectlng treachory, and Yves piled with
drink till he wss ssnaelees, when his head
was cut Of, and his blood, mixed with
rice, was offered 10 some deity. The body
was then hacked, so as to deceive the pc.
lice, and thrown into a tank. The muir
derers, having been arrested, have made a
full confession.

made it q special point to find out

such persons why, If women voted for
morality and order, they opposed their

it's just this: l don't believe in seeing

believe in it.'' 1t is the same old, old

A Cooperative Association of Women
A Club That II Doing Good Work.

A Co-OperatIve Association Of Women
Club That ID Doing Good Work.
A correspondent of the Denver Re-
publican gives an interesting account
of one of the youngest among the
many women's clubs that are now
springing up all over the country, and
are already so great power for good.
To the women of every city, where no
such association has yet been formed.
we commend the example Of these en-
ergetic ladies, with the entreaty to "go
and do likewise"
The idea of cooperative associa-
ton among women of all classes was
first suggested last December by Sister
Ada, the well-known English deacon
ess. Through her efforts several meet
ings OF ladies representing all, denomi-
nations were held, an organization
effected, and the Woman's Home Club
duly incorporated under the laws of
the State of Colorado. The objects of
the club were to assist sclf-supporting
women in their search for work; to
provide for them pleasant home and
board at cost prices, an important
feature of which would be the social
element Of the club-rooms and library,
and to establish bureau Of Informal
ton which should benefit employers as
well as employed, and eventually de.
velop training-school in which cook
ing, housework, sewing, dressmaking.
bookkeeping, stenography. and, in
fact, all branches of industry, shall be
carefully taught. The club aims also
to offer pleasant rooms to ladies from

The first requisite, of course, was {
suitable house and the money for it
furnishing, and to secure this the in
domitable sister, with the aid of few
earnest women, soon collected abou
$4,000. Some four months past in
fruitless search for houses, but finally
in Nay, the club secured the two beau
tiful houses at Nos. 1912 and 1874
Stout street. and furnished them sim
ply and inexpensively. Already tn
experiment has proven the need of thu

crowded to their utmost capacity, hav
had to refuse many applicants, and tn
directors are earnestly looking for
